DadTest

A real test of daditude is whether you can be a regular Joe in the stands when watching your child. Whose ego and pride can be kept on the (side)line?

It's always hard, but the pressure on the father is even greater when you are a "name" yourself. And it doesn't matter if you are a big name like David Beckham watching son Brooklyn juggle 64 times or Iowa State men's basketball coach Greg McDermott and rival Iowa coach Todd Lickliter watching sons Doug and John compete in the state's high school basketball crucible.
